Please share the attached flyer with your accounting majors and other business students who may be interested in pursuing CPA certification.  The San Antonio CPA Society’s annual Accounting Careers Workshop is scheduled for Friday, September 25, 2015 from 5:30-9 p.m., in the NEW Norris Conference Center 618 NW Loop 410 between Blanco and San Pedro Avenue in the Park North retail area.

The Workshop features a panel of CPAs representing the Big Four, a large regional firm, several local firms, and business.  The panelists are all CPAs who will briefly discuss their career paths and offer advice to the students on interviewing, networking, resumes and mentoring.  Sponsoring accounting firms and companies will be on hand for a meet-the-firms opportunity both before and after the workshop.  To date, sponsors include ATKG LLP, Becker, BKD LLP, Davidson Freedle Espenhover & Overby, Grant Thornton, MGR Accounting Recruiters, Quirk & Company, Ridout Barrett & Company, Sol Schwartz & Associates, and Weaver, with additional sponsors joining each day.

Pizza and drinks will be available, therefore, we request that students/faculty respond with their plans to attend no later than Tuesday, 9/22, at noon.    You can forward those names, or simply a head count, directly to me at Amanda@sacpasociety.com or (210)828-2722.  If you would like a list of your students who attended, please let me know in advance. Business appropriate attire is strongly suggested.
